    Sorry Rennick I named my trade after a famous novel of GABRIEL GARCIA MARQUEZ "Cronicas de una muerte anunciada" in spanish (Chronicle of a Death Foretold). This novel is NOBEL price winner. It has nothing to do with you ....

    US Factory Orders at 16:00 are expected to favor the euro. Although most of the fundamentals behind this news are already contained in previous reports, there is going to be speculators.

    A MACD divergences is forming. I’ll wait after 16:00 for direction
